Knight countries: An important part of the South Asian region, Pakistan, is expected to face “moderate growth, stability after economic contraction”, with its gross domestic product (GDP), 2025 is likely to increase 2.3 % in 2025.
The report, titled ‘The United Nations World’s Economic Situation and Possibility 2025’, has been allowed to launch or continue financial relaxation in 2025, with inflation decline.
Meanwhile, governments in Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka are expected to continue financial stability and economic reforms under the programs operated by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
It states that South Asia is expected to remain strong in a close -term approach, which is expected to grow with 5.7 percent in 2025 and 6.0 percent in 2026, “with strong performance in India as well as economic recovery in some other economies”, including Bhutan, Nepal and Sri Lanka.
The report states that the global economy is at an uncertain point, identifying the high level of trade tensions and high levels of policy. Recent rise in prices – increasing the effective rate of US tariffs – increasing production costs, increasing global supply chains and increasing financial riots.
The uncertainty on commercial and economic policies, in conjunction with an unstable geographical political land, is indicating businesses delaying or measuring important investment decisions. This progress is complicating the current challenges, including increasing the level of high debt and slowing productivity, which further damages the chances of global development.
Global GDP growth is now predicted only 2.4 % in 2025, which is less than 2.9 percent in 2024 and is less than 0.4 percent points from January 2025. Global growth, utility pressure and global trade is to weaken – from 3.3 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent to 1.6 percent in 2024. The slow behavior is wide -ranging, which affects both developing and developing economies. The growth in the United States is likely to decrease significantly, from 2.8 % to 1.6 % in 2024, from 1.6 % in 2025, with high revenue and uncertainty of policy, private investment and weight weight can be expected. In the European Union, GDP growth is predicted by 1.0 % in 2025, which has not been changed since 2024, which is between weak net exports and high trade barriers.
China’s growth is expected to slow down this year, which reflects consumers’ suppressed emotions, barriers to export -based manufacturing and the ongoing challenges of the property sector. Many other developing economies, including Brazil, Mexico and South Africa, are also facing a decline in growth due to weakening trade, reducing investment and decreasing commodity prices. India, which has been changed to 6.3 %, has been changed to 6.3 %, which has been changed to 6.3 %.
“Tariff shock is at risk of tough growth, reducing growth, reducing export income and promoting debt challenges, especially since it is long -lasting,” said Secretary -General Li Jinhava, under economic and social affairs for the economic and social affairs of the United Nations. Although the global headline inflation has dropped from 5.7 percent to 4.0 percent in 2024, the price pressure in many economies is higher than stubborn. By early 2025, two -thirds of the countries exceeded the average inflation, with more than 20 developing economies facing two numbers.
Food inflation, which has an average of more than 6.0 %, affects low -income households, especially in Africa, South Asia and Western Asia. High trade barriers and climate shock are further promoting inflation, highlighting the need for integrated policies.
